There were several possible fairly-good reasons for deleting that post, and also fairly good reasons for giving Eliezer some discretion as to what kind of stuff he can ban. Going over those reasons (again) is probably a waste of everybody's times. Who cares about whether a decision taken years ago was sensible, or slightly-wrong-but-within-reason, or wrong-but-only-in-hindsight, etc. ?
XiXiDu cares about every Eliezer potential-mistake.
We're discussing an article that judges LW for believing in the basilisk. Whether the founder believes in the basilisk is a lot more pertinent to judging LW than whether some randomly chosen person on LW believes in it, so there's a good reason to discuss Eliezer's belief specifically.
